- Focuses on advances in understanding forest ecophysiology which underpin good management, including mechanisms of root and canopy development.
- Explores the key challenges in ensuring forest management is consistent with forest ecosystem services, particularly managing the transition from monocultures to complex stands
- Highlights ways of diversifying forest products, including novel uses of timber, biomass, non-timber products and recreational services.
